Popular Post LionofJudah Posted March 15, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 15, 2021 (edited) This is just tragic. I've not seen the play of it but hear it was a harmless dump in. Not a very hard shot but hit him in the temple. Hoping he pulls through. Reports don't sound good though RIP Edited March 16, 2021 by LionofJudah 4 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post McBackup Posted March 15, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 15, 2021 Damn. Its really hard to tell from that video what happened. You'd hope helmets would be sufficient protection for an errant puck, but I remember taking a puck to the ear in minor hockey once and it broke my helmet and turned my ear black and purple for a month. Hoping he pulls through. 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bang Bang Boogie Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 The scary part is that it was such an innocent play which happens quite frequently. The video is not graphic at all (well maybe his reaction) but the puck must've hit in the worst possible spot. I hope he pulls through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warrchief Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 Probably need to redesign helmets to cover more of that vulnerable area near the temple but I wouldn't know how to do it. It just seems so thin around there. I hope he pulls through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeNiro Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Rest In Peace. It would be nice for the NHL to honor him in their next set of games. A little decal with his number would be a nice touch. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quote Timur Faizutdinov died on Tuesday in a hospital in Yaroslavl. This was announced by his club Dynamo St. Petersburg. Despite the efforts of the doctors, the 19-year-old's life could not be saved. The 19-year-old was the captain of the Russian MHL club. The young defender got a puck on the head during a playoff game on the weekend and suffered a fracture of the temporal bone, a cerebral haemorrhage and damage to his carotid artery. Faizutdinov was given artificial respiration, both his heart and lungs had stopped working on their own. The player had passed out while still on the ice. According to various media reports, the doctors had meanwhile hoped that an operation could save his life. However, this did not have to be carried out in the hospital where Faizutdinov was located. In addition, it was feared that he would not survive the transport to a suitable medical facility. Dinamo St. Petersburg announced that before the next games in MHL and the KHL professional league, there will be minutes of silence to commemorate Faizutdinov. thats translation from a german hockey site Edited March 16, 2021 by Bombastik der Teutone 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LionofJudah Posted March 16, 2021 Author Share Posted March 16, 2021 I feel just as bad for the kid who hit him. The guilt he must be feeling. Such an innocent play gone so horribly wrong. And the news that the hospital he was at couldn't preform the surgery that may or may not have saved his life is difficult to hear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
